A client sponsors a participant.

I watch to see how he does.

That's about it for my level of involvement.

yea, I watch certain events.

I really like the snowmobile jumps. Dudes are crazy to be trying flips and shite on those things.

I usually watch it

Some of the events get repetitive or just seem like they made up a new event to give out more medals, but overall, I find it quite entertaining.

I can't imagine that feeling good though, even landing in foam. Those snowmobiles are heavy, and stopping suddenly doesn't sound pleasant with a handle bar to your ribs.

That last run by shaun white was absolutely outstanding. He was on his way to a perfect run during his second run as well, uncharscteristic mess up but he was throwing it down.

we love x games on the west coast. Especially someone like me who snowboards year round. If you guys had badass snow resorts in your states you probably would like it more.

I like watching the X Games pretty much for the fact that they are always pushing the envelope on what they can do. You never know what you'll see them try (and sometimes break every bone in their body). Shaun White tore it up yesterday.

Not to mention his perfect score was on his last run when he already won gold .
